The identity began with the main franchise as a charter member of the
Golden Baseball League in 2005 along with the
Chico Outlaws,
Fullerton Flyers,
Japan Samurai Bears,
Long Beach Armada,
Mesa Miners,
San Diego Surf Dawgs and
Surprise Fightin' Falcons. The franchise had little to limited success in the GBL and a new team was formed as a part of the new developmental
Arizona Winter League in 2007 with the Scorpions joining the
Canada Miners and
Sonora Pilots assuming new identities and the Scorpions and
San Diego Surf Dawgs assuming the former GBL identities. It proved fruitful as the team won three AWL Championships in 2007, 2009 and 2011. Perhaps the most accomplished alumnus of the Scorpions AWL team is
Sergio Romo, who was directly acquired by the
San Francisco Giants without even playing a GBL game. As for the original franchise, they joined the NAL as a charter member following the merger of the GBL and
United League Baseball in 2011 and they have since been purchased from the league by Godfather Media LLC and renamed the
Yuma Panthers in February 2012. ==Season-by-season records==
